You won't add it to a HTTP request. LDAP URLs are special URLs
representing LDAP search requests.

web2ldap has a special feature: You can simply add a LDAP URL as query
string for web2ldap's HTTP URL.

You can examine the specific examples section on:
http://web2ldap.de/demo.html

But it's the client's task to handle a LDAP URL. In former times
Netscape Navigator 4.x could handle LDAP URLs directly with a simple
built-in LDAP client.

You have to translate that to the specific usage of another LDAP client.

Note: directory.umich.edu does not seem to have a LDAP server running on
port 389.

E.g. OpenLDAP's ldapsearch command-line tool:
ldapsearch -x -H ldap://ldap.itd.umich.edu -b ou=People,dc=umich,dc=edu
-s sub "(objectClass=*)"
